I want to take this opportunity to thank Lew Schneider for hosting a great night of trains, friends and pizza. Lew has a small but fun layout, where he runs O gauge- 3 rail MTH and Lionel, as well as his extensive collection of clockwork and electric locomotives (American and British) from early in the last century. Lew is extremely knowledgeable about Bing and Hornby model trains, as well as the history of American real trains east of the Mississippi. It was great to meet his group of train friends, all of whom have their own area of real and model train and trolley expertise.
Lew is on the right with the train necktie.
Some of Lew's collection.
